Bug Description
The Software package for the computer algebra system "maxima" is damaged in karmic koala. E.g. maxima is producing errors on simple quadratic equations (in terminal mode). For example: x²-2*x-2=0
I know, that there's a "healthy" wxmaxima package, which can be used instead of the current damaged one: http://
